Instructions for installation and use
System FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

The PFEIFER WK Quicklift is always used together with PFEIFER WK/DR


anchors. In combination with cast-in PFEIFER lifting anchors it forms
WK Quicklift
the matching lifting anchor system. The unambiguous assignment is done
using head size and the stamp on the anchor head, the Quicklift ball and the
lifter handle

Warning: The use of non-matched or external system components


can cause reduced safety levels and is not admissible. This can
cause a hazard to life and limb. Always use PFEIFER WK/DR components
that are matched to each other.

Notice: The term “size” corresponds to the load classes of


VDI-BV-BS 6205.

WK/DR anchor

Safety FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

The following safety parameter values for PFEIFER lifting anchor systems are derived as follows in accordance with the VDI/BV-BS 6205 directive, with the
prerequisite of the machinery directive 2006/42/EC. For this, a load-side dynamic working coefficient ψdyn=1.3 was assumed.
– Steel failure wire rope: γs = 4,0
– Steel failure chains or full sections: γs = 3,0
– Concrete failure (procedure B*): γc = 2,5
– Concrete failure (procedure A*): γc = 2,1 * for factory monitored fabrication of the prefab concrete elements

Important information about identification markings


The PFEIFER WK system includes the DR and WK anchors. Because of the transition to VDI/BV-BS 6205, that should be seen as the national implementation
of the machinery directive 2006/42/EC, a new safe identification is necessary. Since, during the transition period, products with the old and the new markings
will still be around, the following table should provide a simple and safe assignment of Quicklift and anchors. PFEIFER WK products with the old and the new
markings for a class of size/load can be mixed in the transition period without affecting safety.

Lifting device
The DR anchor and the PFEIFER WK Quicklift are a variant of the WK system
for transporting precast wall panels.

Notice: DR anchors were developed for a single time-limited use


and must not be re-used. Re-attachment several times within one
road transport chain from manufacture to assembly of a precast
concrete element is not classed as repeated use.
WK Quicklift
Notice: The term “size” corresponds to the load classes of
VDI-BV-BS 6205.

Warning: The WK Quicklift must not be changed or modified in any


way. Any modification can lead to reduced safety or even failure of
the anchors and the fall of the structural element. Repair work is not per-
missible and discarded lifting devices must be disposed of.

Safety FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

The following safety parameter values for PFEIFER lifting anchor systems are derived as follows in accordance with the VDI/BV-BS 6205 directive, with the
prerequisite of the machinery directive 2006/42/EC. For this, a load-side dynamic working coefficient ψdyn=1.3 was assumed.
– Steel failure wire rope: γs = 4,0
– Steel failure chains or full sections: γs = 3,0
– Concrete failure (procedure B*): γc = 2,5
– Concrete failure (procedure A*): γc = 2,1 * for factory monitored fabrication of the prefab concrete elements

Use FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

Caution: The anchors to be cast-in must be determined by


the planning engineer. The instructions for installation and use
of the selected anchor type must be complied with.

Warning: The use of accessories that are not part of this


system, those of other manufacturers in particular, can reduce the
carrying capacity and even result in the structural element falling. This
causes a hazard to life and limb. Use only components of the PFEIFER WK
system.

Dimensioning FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

Notice: The anchor must always be attached higher than the centre
of gravity of the concrete part because otherwise the structural
element can tip over during transport.

Notice: To achieve the stated carrying capacity, you need to comp-

PFEIFER WK anchors for
installation in columns and
beams – get a safe grip

The PFEIFER WK anchor is a part of the recognised


PFEIFER WK system and directly derived from the proven
PFEIFER waved anchor. With its significantly shorter shape
it is the optimal choice for use in columns and beams, i.e. in
bar-shaped structural elements with longitudinal and stirrup
reinforcement. This reinforcement makes secure load appli-
cation possible despite the shortness of the anchor.

System
• The product range with the PFEIFER WK anchor, the
PFEIFER WK moulding insert for fixing the anchor,
and the PFEIFER WK Quicklift for attaching the anchor
is appropriate for installing in bar-shaped structural
elements and offers PFEIFER customers a simple and
safe system for transporting precast elements.

PFEIFER lifting anchors


• Highest safety levels from over 50 years of experi-
ence in manufacturing and application consulting
• Safe load distribution even in the thinnest columns

• Optimised waved shape with minimum gap effect
• Load classes from 2 up to 20 tonnes

Made in Germany
• Safe manufacture under consistent conditions
• In-house quality assurance
• Continuous product development

FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

PFEIFER Quicklift with the DR anchor is a variant of the WK system for


transporting column-shaped and heavily reinforced structural elements.

Notice: WK anchors were developed for a single time-limited use


and must not be re-used. Re-attachment several times within one
road transport chain from manufacture to assembly of a precast
concrete element is not classed as repeated use.

Notice: The term “size” corresponds to the load classes of


WK Quicklift VDI-BV-BS 6205.

Warning: The anchor system must not be changed or modified


in any way. Any modification can lead to reduced safety or even
failure of the anchors and the fall of the structural element. Only use
anchors if they are in the defect-free original state.

Safety FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

The following safety parameter values for PFEIFER lifting anchor systems are derived as follows in accordance with the VDI/BV-BS 6205 directive, with the
prerequisite of the machinery directive 2006/42/EC. For this, a load-side dynamic working coefficient ψdyn=1.3 was assumed.
– Steel failure wire rope: γs = 4,0
– Steel failure chains or full sections: γs = 3,0
– Concrete failure (procedure B*): γc = 2,5
– Concrete failure (procedure A*): γc = 2,1 * for factory monitored fabrication of the prefab concrete elements

Use FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

Warning: The use of accessories that are not part of this


system, those of other manufacturers in particular, can reduce the
carrying capacity and even result in the structural element falling. This
causes a hazard to life and limb. Use only components of the PFEIFER WK
system.

Caution: The anchors to be concreted-in must be determined by


the planning engineer. The instructions for installation and use of
the selected anchor type must be complied with.

Dimensioning FOR PLANNERS · FOR PRECAST PLANTS · FOR USERS

Notice: The anchor must always be attached higher than the centre
of gravity of the concrete part because otherwise the structural
element can tip over during transport.

Definition of
lifting anchor systems
Lifting anchor systems are normally used for lifting precast ele-
ments. These systems usually consist of a re-usable lifting device
and a lifting anchor cast into the concrete element.

They must operate reliably and safely. To achieve this, they must safely
absorb all stresses that occur during transport, the lifting operations
and assembly and introduce them into the structural element.

A failure of lifting anchors and lifting anchor systems can endanger


human lives as well as lead to significant damage. Therefore lifting
anchors and lifting anchor systems must be manufactured with high
quality, carefully selected and dimensioned for each application and
installed and used in accordance with regulations by suitable personnel.

The use of transport anchors and transport anchor systems is intended


to be for a single attachment of a precast concrete element. Multiple
attachment within the transport chain from manufacturing of a precast
element to the fitting comes within the definition of “single use”.
